Why AI is boosting Meta's ad business while hurting Google search

In the middle of the trading session on November 1, 2026, fresh economic data is influencing global investment strategy. Macroeconomic releases on growth, employment, and inflation help investors set return expectations and manage their portfolios — including structured investment plans on eBayFX.
